I have a new branch circuit that I need to pull from the attic to the panel. The panel is flush mounted in the wall. Routing it through the attic, drilling through the top plate, that's not a problem.
Where I run into an issue is actually getting the wire into one of those little knockouts on the top of the panel. A fish tape isn't going to be so lucky as to just go through that little hole. My plan is to temporarily cut out a section of drywall right above the panel. I figured I'd ask here first, just in case there's some clever trick I'm missing as I'm getting a little tired of cutting up and patching drywall.
